What problem is this PR intended to solve?

Addresses the bug described in #2324

Commit 1d06b4f introduced NO_EMPTY_TAGS into SaveOptions::DEFAULT_XHTML which libxml2 ignored due to a long-standing bug in serialization.

libxml2 v2.9.11 fixed that serialization bug
(https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/commit/dc6f009) and started paying attention to the NO_EMPTY_TAGS save option, resulting in seeing output containing, e.g. <col></col> instead of <col/>.

This commit updates the default XHTML save options to drop the NO_EMPTY_TAGS flag, restoring this behavior.

Have you included adequate test coverage?

Yes.

Does this change affect the behavior of either the C or the Java implementations?

This brings the C implementation for libxml >= 2.9.11 back into agreement with the Java implementation.
